How to Connect Your Ledger Device to Kastle

Kastle’s browser extension fully supports Ledger hardware wallets, allowing you to manage your Kaspa Wallet securely without ever exposing your private keys.

To connect your Ledger, make sure your device has the Kaspa app installed via Ledger Live.


Step-by-Step Guide

Prepare Your Ledger

  • Connect your Ledger device to your computer.

  • Make sure it’s unlocked and the Kaspa app is open on the device.

Open Kastle

  • In the Kastle browser extension, go to the Account Management page (top-left corner).

  • Click the “+” button.

  • Select “Import with Ledger.”

Connect and Import

  • Click “Connect” in Kastle.

  • On your Ledger, confirm that the Kaspa app is open, then click “I’ve opened the app.”

  • Select the Ledger accounts you want to import then click “Import Wallet.”

Finish Setup

  • Once the import is complete, you’ll see a success message.

  • Click “Go Back to Extension.”

  • Your Ledger accounts will now show up in your wallet and are ready to use.


💡 Tips

  • Keep your Ledger firmware and the Kaspa app up to date for smooth operation.

  • Your private keys never leave the Ledger device — Kastle only reads public account information to display balances and sign transactions securely.


Perfect — here’s the Troubleshooting Ledger Connection Issues section written to follow directly under your Ledger guide. It matches the tone and structure of the rest of your Support Center content:


🧩 Troubleshooting Ledger Connection Issues

If you’re having trouble connecting your Ledger device to Kastle, try these fixes:

⚠️ 1. Device Not Detected

  • Ensure your Ledger is unlocked and the Kaspa app is open.

  • Use a different USB cable or port — some only supply power, not data.

  • If prompted, allow your browser to grant USB access to the Ledger.

🧱 2. Browser Permissions

  • Kastle works best in Google Chrome or Brave.

  • Close Ledger Live before connecting, as it can block access.

  • On macOS, you may need to reconnect your device after granting permissions.

🔄 3. Outdated Kaspa App or Firmware

  • Open Ledger Live and update your firmware and Kaspa app to the latest version.

  • Reconnect your Ledger and reopen the Kaspa app before trying again.

🧹 4. Reset the Connection

If issues persist:

  1. Disconnect your Ledger and close Kastle.

  2. Reopen your browser.

  3. Reconnect your Ledger, open the Kaspa app, and retry “Import with Ledger.”
